Amazing for larger groups and families

I love the split level living with lots of space to spread out and have different things happening in different areas. You can have a movie going the upstairs lounge, card games in the downstairs lounge, cooking in the kitchen, enjoying the spa and playing table tennis all at the same time without being in each other's space. Also super soundproof. We will definitely be coming back. Host is very responsive. It really is everything you need.

A fantastic stay

Great size house with multiple and flexible living spaces over two levels. Together with the outdoor spaces (jacuzzi, deck, table tennis table) there was plenty of space for our large group of 10 to spread out and enjoy the house in different ways - this was especially useful for us as the weather wasn’t the best during our stay so we ended up staying indoors more than we anticipated - we commented often that we were lucky to be staying in such a large, flexible house with many different areas to enjoy. The location is fantastic with only a short 10 min walk to the Rye foreshore, jetty and strip of shops/eateries and 7 minute drive to the hot springs. Booking process was smooth with clear and prompt communication. Will definitely look to stay again if holidaying on the Peninsula with a large group in future.

Beautiful house, great for entertaining

We loved our stay. We mostly self-catered and the open plan kitchen dining was great for that. A 10 am check-out is a bit tough though, when you also have to put the bins out for rubbish service two days later. Makes the last morning stressful and rushed. We would have enjoyed one more leisurely breakfast together as a group, before going our separate ways. But all in all, it delivered on its promise.

Girls weekend

We had a thoroughly enjoyable weekend away. The house was very large, modern, clean and well located to all of the mornington peninsula. The spa was heated for our arrival. There was oodles of seating both around the table and the large lounge meant we could easily laze around chatting. Everyone is in agreeance that we rebook for next year.

Stunning property with amazing views

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful spotless property which easily accommodated 2 families and grandparents. The spa added that extra bit of fun for us and the two large living areas meant we were all able to have our own space but also all be in one area if we wanted to. The sunset and view from the balcony was great to watch too. Highly recommend. Thanks
